The Stellantis Group yesterday presented i financial data for the first half of 2021. Much more interesting, however, the conference call held by CEO Carlos Tavares because in addition to examining the Group’s economic results, it has added some details of the electrification plan that closely affect some Italian brands. During the EV Day in early July, the new Alfa e-Romeo brand made its appearance and had “alarmed” Alfa Romeo fans. Fortunately, as was explained later, it was just a move to illustrate a change that will involve this brand in the coming years. The name, in fact, will not change.
